OUTDOOR DRIVING SURFACES

Your scooter is designed to provide optimum stability under normal driving conditions—dry, level surfaces com- posed of concrete, blacktop, or asphalt. However, Pride recognizes that there will be times when you will encoun- ter other surface types. For this reason, your scooter is designed to perform admirably on packed soil, grass, and gravel. Feel free to use your scooter safely on lawns and in park areas.

νReduce your scooter’s speed when driving on uneven terrain and/or soft surfaces.

νAvoid tall grass that can become tangled in the running gear.

νAvoid loosely packed gravel and sand.

νIf you feel unsure about a driving surface, avoid that surface.

PUBLIC STREETS AND ROADWAYS

WARNING! You should not operate your scooter on public streets and roadways. Be aware that it may be difficult for traffic to see you when you are seated on your scooter. Obey all local pedestrian traffic rules. Wait until your path is clear of traffic, and then proceed with extreme caution.

NOTE: Safety accessories like fluorescent flags are available to order from your authorized Pride Provider.

STATIONARY OBSTACLES (STEPS, CURBS, ETC.)

WARNING! Do not drive near raised surfaces, unprotected ledges, and/or drop-offs (curbs, porches, stairs, etc.).

WARNING! Do not attempt to have your scooter climb or descend an obstacle that is inordinately high. Serious personal injury and/or damage may result.

WARNING! Do not attempt to have your scooter proceed backward down any step, curb, or other obstacle. This may cause the scooter to tip and cause personal injury.

WARNING! Be sure your scooter is traveling perpendicular to any curb you may be required to ascend or descend. See figures 4 and 4A.

WARNING! Do not attempt to negotiate a curb that has a height greater than 2 in.
